Play Your Part in Creating Change
We are a social and environmental justice organisation, offering exciting opportunities for community connection through conversation, creativity and play. We are here for everyone but prioritise giving a voice to individuals and families facing the most challenges.
Who we are...
ScrapAntics are a creative recycling social justice enterprise who run Dundee’s only ScrapStore.
​
Our core values are community, art, recycling and education.
Whilst here for everyone, we prioritise working with local people who face challenges through disadvantage, seeking to bring the joy and positive impact of imagination, creativity and Play to the whole community.
We are a diverse team of artists, creatives, volunteers, teachers, community workers, play workers and youth workers – all guided by our passion for social justice. Sustainability and equality are at the heart of everything we do – supporting the needs of our community, ensuring all voices are heard and putting people before profit.
​
We believe that creativity is core to rethinking our approach to living in, and learning about, the world…
Creative Recycling
ScrapAntics have now repurposed over 100 tonnes of waste back into the community as resources for creative and play-based projects.
All of our workshops, projects and events use recycled and donated materials, driving forward Dundee’s circular economy and looking to create a more sustainable future.
